This assessment was designed to inform a planned move to the new Civic Hub complex which is of a much smaller footprint than the existing offices. The assessment process was to identify physical records to be retained in one of two given alternatives: - "Secure Offsite" - semi current records for which there would be no room at the new Hub complex building but which would need reasonably frequent retrieval ; ii) "Archival" - records which it was felt needed to be kept for legal and compliance reasons but which did not need to be consulted, or hardly at all . In estimating volumes staff used a variety of measures depending on storage used (filing cabinets, shelves, basement racking etc.) but these were translated into an Archive Box equivalent using the standard R-Kive storage box with internal dimensions H 254 mm x W 330 mm x D 381 mm and external dimensions H 260 mm x W 340 mm x L 400 mm. The Council is now seeking to procure the services of a provider able to store, retrieve and where appropriate manage the disposal of these records on behalf of the authority. ## CPV classification Storage and warehousing services Source Contracts Finder (UK) [View official notice](https://www.contractsfinder.service.gov.uk/notice/1f7aac69-cd38-4d52-abf5-47313dcbbb81) Never miss a tender like this again Get AI summaries, deadline alerts and a bid pipeline for tenders matched to your business.
